As far as I'm aware they are interchangeable, but you can get most of the parts off of ebay to fix your own one, as well as exchange racks.

I am with him ^^ as the Escos is just a shorted Sierra platform so in theory it should fit.

yes i was thinking it should fit as everything is sierra 4x4

gutted as i have a spare 2wd rack sitting here doing nout but as far as imaware these dont fit???

only differnce i can see is t he steering shaft is longer that comes out of rack????
but this prob could be changed for 4x4 one????

just a thought!

No the 2WD and 4x4 racks are different, one mounts from the front and the other from the back, i've had both so I can vouch for this.
